Question 1 of 5

A nurse is planning care for a client who had a lumbar laminectomy. Which of the following interventions should the nurse include in the plan of care?

Correct Answer: B

Rationale: The correct answer is B: Turn the client by log rolling with a turning sheet. This is the correct intervention because after a lumbar laminectomy, it is crucial to protect the surgical site and avoid bending or twisting the spine. Log rolling with a turning sheet helps maintain proper alignment and prevent injury to the surgical area.


Choice A is incorrect because encouraging the client to ambulate independently may put stress on the surgical area.
Choice C is incorrect as positioning the client in a high Fowler's position may also strain the spine.
Choice D is incorrect because applying a heating pad to the lower back can increase the risk of burns and should be avoided near a surgical site.
